FAQs

Zylomentin Tablet 6's contains amoxycillin, clavulanic acid and lactic acid bacillus. Amoxycillin works by inhibiting the formation of the bacterial cell wall (a protective covering) and causing damage to the bacterial cell wall. This eventually leads to the death of the bacterial cell and thus prevents the growth of bacterial infections. Clavulanic acid inhibits the beta-lactamase enzyme, which prevents bacteria from destroying the efficacy of amoxicillin. Lactic acid bacillus is a probiotic that helps restore the balance of good bacteria in the gut
